We all find ourselves asking what energy drink won’t shut my organs down? Energy drinks are something that teachers and students consume everyday in order to get themselves through the school day. So the big question that needs to be answered is which one is best for you?

Tori Flaherty, an English Teacher at HBHS, was interviewed about energy drinks, as she has one almost everyday. She herself has researched this topic in the past, searching for the answer. Flaherty was asked what energy drinks were her favorite, and which one she felt the worst after having. 

She said that Celsius was her favorite, and she felt the best after having one.  other hand, having an Alani made her feel the worst. She was then asked what energy drink she would recommend to someone who hasn’t tried one. To this she replied, “I would not recommend one to someone who hasn’t had one. I feel like energy drinks are born out of a level of desperation for caffenation. That being said, I’d recommend the strawberry kiwi celsius. It’s a crowd pleaser.”

Tammy Leonard, a math teacher at HBHS, was also interviewed about energy drinks. She is very against energy drinks and has a low caffeine intake each day. She had some interesting perspectives to offer, saying that the reason she doesn’t like energy drinks is because high doses of caffeine aren’t good for you. 

In order for  Leonard to purchase an energy drink, it would have to have less than half a cup of coffee’s level of caffeine and use natural ingredients. She also stated in the interview that “people need caffeine because they teach themselves to need caffeine.”

While interviews are helpful to get opinions, we are here for the facts. When researching, it was found that Celsius was the healthiest energy drink. Celsius has low calories and no added sugars. It uses natural caffeine sources like green tea and guarana as an energy source. Celsius also incorporates vitamins like vitamins c and b, along with ginger root. The only downside to celsius is that it contains 200mg of caffeine. 

Even so, when comparing it to other energy drinks like red bull, or blooms, Celsius comes out on top. So if you find yourself in need of energy, without your insides rotting, Celsius is your answer.
